And my response every single time has been that the huge difference there is that the other 50% of the stake would be going directly to tons of different creators that way, thus decentralizing Hive more.

Oh, you were referring to my curation rewards that were lost due to your downvotes? I'm reasonably sure that transisto does more damage than that to them. When you're downvoting those comments, you're

you all still benefit greatly from curation in a big way while trying to stabilize rewards pool and increase funding for DHF. The people voting for funds to the DHF would benefit the same for voting for

Why are we even still using this method? Last April you stated it was only until the next hardfork, a couple of months. Which method are you referring to? The stabilizer? The stabilizer has a small advantage

If that's so, why does the HBDStabilizer require $2.4M a month from the DHF and another $10k+ per day from the comments. The funds from the stabilizer flow back to the DHF. And the DHF profits from it.

like the use of liquidity pools, making it an algorithmic stable coin (currently it has nothing besides the Hive conversion to actually peg it) It's hard to pin down the dumbest comment you've made in

It seems pretty clear that the justification of "stabilizing HBD" doesn't really explain the plays that are happening here, not to mention there are TONS of other means to stabilize HBD, like

stealing from Blocktrades' budget? What proposal of mine is being funded by the DHF?

Curation rewards are one of the benefits of being a hive power holder. It's already been pointed out several times to you that anyone voting for these posts could just as easily follow a curation trail

Another question if you do not mind me asking something somewhat related to votes not going to the platform, do the developers dislike the idea of HIVE being social media? As to dev opinions, I can only

The rewards for these posts ultimately go to the DHF where they can be used to fund more community projects (typically software development and marketing). I vote for these because I think that is in the

I think the next HF will likely come near the end of February, but there's no set date yet. When we looked into SMTs, we found the code wasn't nearly complete (despite what had been reported by Steemit).

As I understand it, Coinbase likes tokens to integrate some interface called Rosetta. I haven't looked into it myself, but @howo reviewed it. I suggested to him that it should probably be supported via

I mostly relaxed and ate a lot over Christmas weekend. An old pingpong buddy stopped by as well, so I spent a couple of hours trying to counter the effects of all that food. A lot more fun than working

Thanks, happy new year!

Our current improvements are centered on getting more accurate measurements of the costs of transactions and operations that can then be used to rationalize the pricing for them (currently some of the

Thanks, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you as well!

Yes, I only described their implementation architecture, not their function, although hopefully the names hint at that. The main reason for creating these apps was to have code examples of some of the

My point was that you and your team are (afaik) doing the vast majority of the actual Hive (not L2/sidechain) development, correct? We do the majority of the work on hived currently, but @howo also

even moreso by instead sending all of that to the "DHF," which you pretty much single-handedly control at this point. I don't have a fraction of the stake that was owned by Steemit and Ned, and
